Solve : Make computer like new?

Answer»

How can I take my computer back to like it was when I first got it? I have an older Dell laptop that I would like to do this to.Check the Dell site for info on what's called a "Factory Restore".....
It's different for all PC's so it's best to go there for info.

NOTE: ALL your data will be gone...but the PC will be back to Day 1 status...so backup anything you may need.Use Factory Restore. Be sure to back up PERSONAL data first as it will all be gone after you use it. Quote from: funguy11 on JANUARY 09, 2014, 07:47:10 AM

What's the purpose of your post?SOMEONE's feeding the Parrots again...Hi

I recommend ALWAYS if the option is available to make system restore DVD's . Dells have this in , click Start> All Programs> Dell Accessories> Dell OS Recovery CD..

And use these to restore the laptop.

If you are keeping the laptop, after you have reloaded and installed all the windows updates and your programs and setups. It's then a good idea to do a total system backup to a usb drive so if you ever need to reload again you  you can save all the TIME needed to do updates etc.
